“If All Time Is Eternally Present” became an opportunity to collaborate with a creative design community able to respond to the ambitions and visual language of the project, enhancing its presence within the urban context.

The curators commissioned XAARCHIVE to design the lighting system for the technical and informational tower located in Campo Manin. XAARCHIVE STUDIO is a Milan- and Barcelona-based practice, founded by architects Nayla Cefarelli and Sofía Lorenzo, working across architecture, technology, and contemporary culture. Their intervention for the exhibition ensured the accessibility and readability during the nocturnal life of the project, transforming the tower into a lantern that illuminates the night of Campo Manin.

“If All Time Is Eternally Present” è diventato un’occasione per collaborare con una comunità creativa e progettuale capace di rispondere alle ambizioni e al linguaggio visivo del progetto, amplificandone la presenza all’interno del contesto urbano.

Le curatrici hanno commissionato a XAARCHIVE la progettazione del sistema di illuminazione della torre tecnica e informativa situata in Campo Manin. XAARCHIVE STUDIO è uno studio con sede tra Milano e Barcellona, fondato dalle architette Nayla Cefarelli e Sofía Lorenzo, che opera all’intersezione tra architettura, tecnologia e cultura contemporanea. Il loro intervento per la mostra ha garantito accessibilità e leggibilità durante la vita notturna del progetto, trasformando la torre in una lanterna che illumina la notte di Campo Manin.

If All Time Is Eternally Present.
Light design for @labiennale

Organised by Pier Luigi Nervi Foundation. Sponsored by Bottega Veneta.

Collateral Event of the Biennale Arte 2026. Campo Manin, Venice (9 May – 7 June 2026).

“If All Time Is Eternally Present” is an exhibition presented by the Pier Luigi Nervi Foundation featuring works by @kandis_williams, @taishani, @meriembennani, and Orian Barki, curated by @clairementc and @martabarina

Set at Palazzo Nervi Scattolin in Campo Manin, Venice, from 9 May to 7 June 2026, the project transforms the façade of the building into a nocturnal urban exhibition device through moving image, projection, and reflection.

Conceived as an encounter between architecture, public space, and speculative visual languages, the exhibition explores contemporary social and cultural conditions while engaging with the experimental legacy of Pier Luigi Nervi. The project inaugurates “Building Dialogue,” a new programme by the Pier Luigi Nervi Foundation dedicated to reinterpreting Nervi’s work through contemporary artistic practices.

Sponsored exclusively by @newbottega and presented as part of the Collateral Events of the 61st International Art Exhibition – La Biennale di Venezia, the exhibition includes light design by @xaarchive____ , seating by @_swedish_girls_ production @schaum__official, and visual identity by @sebastianocampoccya .

THE FALL OF LUCIFER
Installed in a Private Tattoo Atelier, in Milan

Laser-cut raw steel and LED strip.

The sculpture is cut from a single 4mm sheet of raw stainless steel. Its surface remains untreated — no polish, no coating — allowing the material to register light, oxidation, and the marks of fabrication. The figure emerges through subtraction: laser-cut contours define a body suspended between extension and collapse. What is removed becomes as important as what remains.

Private Tattoo Atelier, 2025

Completed last year in Milan, this project is a soft interior renovation conceived to create a sense of ease and comfort for each visitor.

A private tattoo atelier operating by appointment only, the space was designed as a calm, gallery-like environment and workspace for a single artist.
